Give Yourself Permission to Rest and Receive
The Yoga Lifestyle
This training is not just to teach the technical aspects of Restorative Yoga, but also how to make Restorative Yoga a part of your life.
Unleash Your Potential
To use meditation tools to confront and dissolve the self-limiting conditioning you've accumulated throughout your life.
Presence
Learn how to be present in your body and the moment, opening to the deep healing capacities that arise through stillness and conscious rest.
Powerful Tools
Explore asana, breathwork, movement, music, and self-inquiry as tools for calming the mind and preparing the body for true meditative rest.
Safe Spaces
Learn how to hold spaces where people feel safe to soften, share, be seen, and receive support as they heal, rest, and come home to themselves.
Self-Inquiry
Use self-inquiry practices like the Zen Koan “Who am I?” to deepen awareness and connect with your essence beyond patterns and personality.
Focus
Slow the busy mind and deepen your ability to stay present. You’ll learn to surrender to what is and listen to the quiet wisdom of your body.
Limitless
Restorative Yoga opens the door to spiritual growth, inner expansion, and the lived experience that your Being is already whole and complete.
Holding Space
Learn to hold space for others and yourself—by being present, silent, and accepting—so transformation can unfold in its own wise timing.
Imagine This
A year from now, you’re no longer pushing through the exhaustion or questioning if you’re doing enough.
You feel steady, open, and deeply connected to your body - whether you’re guiding others in rest, or finally allowing it for yourself.
Even when life happens - when your family grows, a parent needs care, or a beloved pet passes - you’ve created space within yourself to meet it all with presence.
Whether you’re holding space in a classroom or simply living with more clarity, you’ll know you gave yourself the greatest gift:
The time to listen, the support to soften, and the trust to truly rest.

Embodiment in Their Words
I was pregnant during the teacher training and enjoyed every bit of it.
It was so wholesome to receive Veda’s teachings, to practice together, and to make space for deep rest and restoration.
If you’re planning to teach or not, I would definitely recommend this training!
Amani
I learned so much from Veda Ela. This YTT goes far beyond techniques — Veda Ela teaches straight from the heart. Her honest, direct, and soulful sharings on ego, life, authenticity, and living from the heart brought about a deep process of transformation.
Forever grateful.
Sasja
Being with Veda Ela feels very safe.
She inspires by taking care of herself and never judging what you say or do. That doesn’t mean she won’t offer insights — she simply does it with wisdom and grace.
Her yoga invites deep feeling into your body. She’s truly living it.
